Not long ago, nm Augusta man had occa-

keep posted" ON what was going on about
him. As the Augusta man was being helped
to chicken, the little fellow exclaimed, Iia !!

al moments before equilibrium became re-
stored. and during the remainder of the
meal the Juvenile was master of the situation.

Hrs. Cioveland's Uncomfortable Week.
Never has the mistress OF the execu-
tive mansion known SO uncomfortable q
week as that just past, according to her
own testimony given in an observation
to An acquaintance on Friday. The.
main reason for the discomfort was her
anxiety concerning the president, who
has really he'd a very severe attack OF
rheumatism. and the horrible weather
which has marked the closing days OF
the year. Mrs. Oleveland's nervous or
~ganiEation is OF 30 fine an order that she
ID s~ingularly senEltiye to radical changes
in the weather. The presidents illness
and the obstinate nature of the attack,
which rsBists medication with unusual
stubbornness, rendered Me-. Cleveland
extremely Hneasys Though Hhe was
told there was little danger, yet the
sudden taking of OF Senator Logan made
the well mean assurances of friends
less effective than they would have been
under ordinarily circumstances. Late
on Tuesday afternoon after the callers
at Mrs. Vians' had almost finished their
visits, Mira. Cleveland with her mother
oame IN to congratulate the postmaster
generals young daughter upon Eer
formal muster IN" to society. Mrs
CIevelandis toilette wassa purple.vioiet
gown which she wore when she sat for
her famous portrait made by the great
artist and proprietor Of Puck. Her hat
was small, OF dark brown, trimmed with
o feather and ribbons of topaz red. The
only visible ornament was q diamond
horseshoe pin, with which she fastened
the standing collar worn with the suit.
On Friday, at General Logan's funeral
services. Mrs.. Oleveland's costume was
OF the simpiest-A black cloth sIis, very
plain and worn without any ornaments,
and . little black hat, and long
gloves. She seemed greatly impressed
By the solsrnnity Of the occasion.

Spark Impregnably Entrenched,
Washington, jan. 1--Gen. Sparks, the
king Of the land business, still sits COM
plAcently in his office enthroned upon
his own dignity, unmindful OF the buzz
zinR OF the official flies. There has been
no officer OF the government under this
administration who has been obliged to
endure SO much v~ituperation and villiti-
cation as Sparks. Rumors of lis resig-
nation have been OF frequent occurrence;
and the wonder Of the land has been,
how he manages to retain his position.
Delegate Tooie, OF Montana, is about the
only representative man OF the north
and west who has not made it part of
his daily business to abuse Sparks. It
begins to dawn upon the gentlemen who
have been most active in This fulisade
against the commissioner that
he has the confidence of the president
absolutely in land Office matters.
All who have attacked Sparks have
INSIDE up their minds that Sparks is
acquainted with the administration, and
that the administration is acquainted
with tbs GEE C 9 much
abused Sparks, policy seems to be now
regarded a. tina Cleveland policy. Ger
tain 1T 10 that uhomsosver Sparks wants

pleasure "get there and shiver. Saga
cious men who have favors yet to ask
OF the administration are beginning to
ses that Sparks il livery much Of a
gentleman and an admirable ofioial.n
They are diligent in declaring, II never
had any sympathy with the villifers Of
the commissioner" Some Of them q
few months ago we're part and parcel OF
the pack which was trying to run Sparks
into . hole and sacrifice him. They
have pitched their tune on q different
ssale and have had encore verses written
Ter them. Nothing succeeds like sue

remarkable cure Of congestion Of the
kidneys:
Three years ago I was attacked with
congestion Of the kidneys. My physi-
clan. besides administering internal
remedies, had applied on my back, over
the affected region, two ALnCocK's
Porous PLAsTERs. / recovered In the
course Of about two weeks. A year after,
exposure brought on o similar attack,
but il seemed as if the congestion was
more sever Certainly, I had more pain
and difficulty liz passing water. Instead
OF calling q doctor this time, l concluded
to try plasters alone, so I purchased q
q box of ALLcocK's Porous PLAsTERs,
and applied two fresh ones every day.
The pain quickly lessened, the water
flowed more freely after the first applica.
tiop, and in juet ak days 1 was CON.
pletely restored and able to resume my
occupation.
